Speaking of Dog and Pony shows, the Philosemitism Blog points to this announcement at Ramsey Clark's International Action Center for an INTERNATIONAL JURY OF CONSCIENCE FOR LEBANON to be held in Brussels in February. And just who is going to be in the dock? Hizballah? Syria? Iran perhaps? You know who.
Surprisingly, the accused will be allowed 30 minutes to react: "Reaction of the defendant (30min)". Of course, that comes after the "Reading the indictment (90 min)".
I don't know who's going to be appearing for the defense, but shame on them for bothering. Shame on anyone who grants legitimacy to this sort of farce:
From 10:45 to 11:00 a.m.: coffee/tea break
From 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.: statement from a representative of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations...
The show also promises REAL LIVE JUDGES!
Real judges would participate in one-sided staged farces of this nature? Names, please.
What? No Hebrew?

Comment Info and Policy:
1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!
